Bootable EFI CDs on an Intel Mac are a bit different than a normal EFI CD. As such, they need special support.

What's needed

Ability to create image files for the icon and label to be used on the boot option screen

Ability to create CD that has el torito images as well as an Apple Partition Map which specifies the HFS+ image as a partition.

icon/label images included in *-logos

modification of mk-images to create the appropriate HFS+ image and add it to CD images.

Current Status
